In this physics demonstration, learners will be surprised when a handkerchief holds water in an upside-down glass.

Perform this classic inertia demonstration to illustrate the transfer of potential energy to kinetic energy.

Listen to the beat of gravity. By taking two strings with weights tied to them at different, yet uniform intervals, you can hear the uniformity (and rhythm) of gravity's accelerating pull.

In this activity, learners discover how hard their hearts work to pump blood.

Walk a toy to the edge of its doom, maybe it'll fall off the edge of a table, but it will safely stop right before falling.
